Arya Saloka will be paired with Ziva Magnolya. They will compete against a pair from Malaysia, namely Atu Zero and Atita Haris.
"I'm a fan of him (Arya Saloka). Can Arya play badminton? So I did some browsing, I watched on YouTube. Turns out it's good. Finally, I WhatsApp him," said Desta when met in the Kemang area, South Jakarta, Friday (10/11/2023).

According to Vincent Rompies, the name Arya Saloka has often been a topic of conversation since Tepok Bulu 2022. Considering that Arya Saloka was still undergoing stripping shooting last year, the invitation was only conveyed this year.
"Arya is a name that has been mentioned since the first Tepok Bulu actually. When we held Tepok Bulu, when I and (Valentino) jebret it, the name Arya Saloka always echoed, always mentioned by friends Vivindedes," said Vincent.
"At that time, we didn't have the courage to contact Arya because at that time he was crazy, very busy. In terms of our schedule, it seemed impossible," added Vincent.
2. Arya Saloka is Very Enthusiastic
Arya Saloka himself admits that he is very enthusiastic about facing the upcoming match. Indeed, in the content circulating on social media, Arya Saloka shows his badminton skills.
However, Tepok Bulu 2023 will be the first time Arya Saloka participates in a badminton championship and is watched by many people. That's why various preparations are currently being made by Arya Saloka.
"If the match is like the previous RT, but only one match, because even one match is painful for me, but thankfully I won. And a long time ago, when I was in elementary school, I participated in Porseni once, but after that I never played again," he concluded.
